Description
Drug War is a gripping account of the men who drugged Britain and those who tried to stop them. From 1970 to 2020, HM Customs' Investigation Division waged a 50-year battle against cannabis, cocaine, and heroin smugglers.
The book tells the story of the smuggling gangs, both organised and chaotic, who turned an amateur pastime into a multi-billion-pound trade. Drawing on over 100 unique interviews with insiders who have never spoken publicly before, Drug War is a groundbreaking account of one of the most fascinating subjects of our times.
